Colonel Ho Van Thai, vice head of the Department of Politics under the Military
Zone 9 High Command, said the event looks to honour soldiers who sacrificed
their lives for the country’s sovereignty and freedom.
On display were nearly 300 valuable images, documents, and items from the
southwest border defence war and the joint victory over the genocidal crime in
Cambodia.
The exhibits include personal belongings which were discovered during the
repatriation of soldiers’ remains, such as handkerchiefs, shoes, and water
bottles, along with weapons like guns, bullets, and binoculars, among others.
The exhibition is hoped to help the younger generations learn more about this
pivotal time in Vietnam’s history, enhancing their sense of patriotism and
national pride. –VNA
